In the absence of a vaginal discharge or any evidence of a vulval bacterial or fungal infection, I would disregard this odor as anything significant. If you still have concerns, consult your gynecologist.

Local secretions can accumulate and cause fishy odor. Pl clean area thoroly including folds and crevices with mild soap and water daily and you will be fine.
